Hi Ryan, I'd be interested in your guys spatial4j. The biggest issue unfortunately for me is that as a preference for downstream users, I don't think SIS should include any dependencies (even optional) on projects with the LGPL license.
Is there any way that the works of spatial4j could be replaced by ALv2 code?
